Styling options for Link controls
Establishing a consistent look for Link controls in your application saves development time, gives your application a more predictable user interface, and makes it easier for users to complete forms.
- Designate the format of the Link control to provide a visual cue
to users about the link's relative importance. If a form contains multiple links, set the
Control format option to Strong for the
primary link.
For more information, see Adding icons to controls.
- Make minor changes to the placement and styling of a Link
control by using Cascading Style Sheet (CSS) helper classes. For example, you can apply a
helper class to center a Link control in a layout or to double its
standard margins.
For more information, see Adjusting cell styling with helper classes.
- Make more extensive styling changes to Link controls in the
application's skin.
For more information, see Skin form — Components tab — Controls — Links.
